On the other hand, Balzen learned that two of the most elite infantry battalions would come to support, and that he himself was the front-line commander of more than a thousand people. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

For him, this is a great honor, but it also means a greater responsibility.

Now more than twenty people have escaped from the German camp, and they are also quickly armed and assigned to various platoons as auxiliaries.

The POWs had hoped to escape into the swamp and join the local resistance, but they didn't expect their dreams to come true so soon. Recalling everyone's previous battles and the abuse they suffered in the prisoner of war camp after being captured, no one did not want to take revenge on the Germans. Balzen believed in the sincerity of these people, after all, it was an incomparable shame to be a prisoner of war, and only atonement for their sins in a new battle was the right way.

The task of the whole company is to wait, and this wait is two days.

Every three hours, Balzen sent a telegram from the division headquarters asking where reinforcements were. As a result, at 21 on the evening of March 24, the reconnaissance company actually received a radio signal from reinforcements.

Yang Mingzhi has been advocating the feasibility of running on two legs, after all, the Chinese Red Army's Long March, ultra-high mobility is one of the main conditions for the army's victory. Lavrenti and Evgeny were able to maintain a high pace in the field, thanks to their daily training. By the time they made contact with Balzen, the distance between the two armies was less than twenty kilometers in a straight line, which meant that the two armies would inevitably meet tomorrow.

Balzen was overjoyed, and the soldiers of the whole army saw great hope. The order from the division headquarters was to ensure sufficient troops to confront the enemy on the front line, but the real order must not be this!

Many people tossed and turned excitedly, and some even talked about the so-called increase of troops and the confrontation with the enemy, which were all pretenses, but were actually preparing for a new offensive. There is even speculation that the superiors intend to test the new weapon on the enemy's position.

Balzen made his bed, and the rumors soon reached his ears.

The second platoon commander came over and asked anxiously: "Company commander, we all know that the deputy division commander conducted a weapon experiment in Catfish Village and created a powerful fireball, and now the arsenal must have begun to mass-produce this weapon, in addition to other new explosives, is it our real task!" ”

"Who knows?! I wonder if it's really this! We've been out of the barracks for too much time. "What the division wants to do, Balzen can only guess beautifully. He longed for war in his heart, and he was full of fantasies about the new weapons created by the deputy division commander, as if they only needed a few shots at the enemy's position, and their carefully built defense line would collapse.

In fact, if it is really a cloud burst bomb, it is indeed a devastating blow to the traditional trench system of World War II, which is also an important reason why Yang Mingzhi must come up with an incendiary air weapon.

Balzen finally fell asleep, but things didn't go his way.

Just a kilometer south of the current camp of the reconnaissance company, Lavrenty and Evgeny on the march were found. Immediately, several soldiers came out of the forest holding red flags, and the two armies exchanged flags at a distance of one kilometer, and more than 1,000 people immediately accelerated towards the place where the red flag was flying.

After a long wait, reinforcements finally arrived.

The two battalions of the expedition brought a lot of provisions, and to Balzen's surprise, they didn't even bring any heavy weapons this time.

When the old comrades-in-arms met, the soldiers were very excited, and the total strength suddenly increased to 1,300 people.

"I'm sorry, but you weren't greeted with bread or salt, but we had a lot of cigarettes." Balzen lit one for the two of them, and the three of them smoked together beautifully. Balzen asked, "The chief ordered you to come, is our mission simply to ambush here?" ”

"Of course it's more than that!" Ravliandi said flatly.

"Is it going to attack! The superiors decided? We've been watching the enemy for a long time, and we've pulled the cannon over and beat them hard. Wait, why didn't you bring a recoilless gun......"

Obviously, the reconnaissance company commander was too excited, and Yevgeny patted him on the shoulder: "Your death squad is too belligerent, and there will indeed be wars in the future, and it is definitely not what you think." ”

The whole army stopped and began to rest, and the three officers immediately began to meet.

A new order was delivered, and the two reinforced infantry battalions were changed from Balzen Wisdom to the order of the whole army to defense. It was only at this time that Balzen learned that it turned out that a particularly large-scale airdrop operation would be launched a few days later, in addition to the delivery of a large amount of supplies, there was also a whole regiment of airborne reinforcements.

Originally, the three of them were sitting cross-legged, but Balzen jumped up excitedly, "It's so good! With the addition of a paratrooper regiment, our combat effectiveness will be especially strong. ”

"There's also a lot of food, ammunition, and a mess of daily necessities." The happy Evgeny pointed to his military uniform, "The weather is starting to get hot, and it is impossible for us to wear cotton clothes in the summer." There are tens of thousands of new military uniforms, and even the clothes of female soldiers. So our mission is to defend this airdrop. ”

Balzen immediately pointed to the north and said, "I understand! The enemy, seeing our massive airborne landing, is likely to take the initiative to attack, so that they will immediately encounter our first attack. ”

"That's right, our combat is characterized by surprise attacks, so forest operations need flexible and mobile weapons, such as RPGs, and this time we have carried a batch of newly produced warheads, which are more flexible than recoilless guns."

If it is to attack the enemy's positions, mortars and recoilless guns are magic weapons, but unfortunately they are more bulky. Forest encounters, RPG mobility is unmatched.

Balzen's current task is to establish a defensive line in the forest, he does not need to dig trenches and repair pillboxes like the Germans, he only needs to build troops in small groups, and build a kind of position, this kind of group composed of machine guns, rifles, submachine guns and RPGs, the comprehensive combat effectiveness is actually very strong.

Of course, he also mentioned the escape of the prisoners of war in the early hours of tomorrow morning, and at this time, since Balzen reported to the division headquarters, Yang Mingzhi and others also carried out the analysis. Evgeny relayed the words of the divisional headquarters: "The superiors did not think that their escape would be successful, not because of distrust, but because the prisoners of war had already escaped partially, and only fools would not strengthen their defenses. ”

"But, that's five hundred! If they do escape, our strength will increase again! Besides, we already have an internal response. ”

Yevgeny shook his head helplessly, "The superior ordered us not to meddle in this matter, if you are still unwilling, we can contact the division headquarters now." ”

Now that Balzen had command, he could have ordered the entire army to receive the fleeing prisoners of war in the early hours of tomorrow morning. Since the division headquarters did not agree to this kind of behavior, he still had a little luck and immediately contacted the division headquarters. Anyway, reinforcements have arrived, and liaison with the division headquarters is also necessary.

The radio was on, and Yang Mingzhi, who had been supervising the construction of the equipment of the fertilizer plant in Ligushkov, was in the arsenal, and he hurried back to the division headquarters.

There was nothing wrong with the safe arrival of the two battalions, but when he heard that Balzen had asked the troops to go to the edge of the forest to pick up the escaped prisoners of war, Yang Mingzhi immediately denied it. "The mission of the troops is to ambush in the forest, and your presence must have been exposed, so the prisoners' escape plans may also be doomed to failure. You must carry out the orders of the division headquarters, and you must not attack without permission, even if you monitor that the prisoners of war have escaped, you must report to the division headquarters, and you are not allowed to rescue without orders. ”

When Yang Mingzhi issued this order, Yevlov and Yelentina were also in the division headquarters. The two of them fully supported him, but on the issue of prisoners of war, there were some complaints due to Yang Mingzhi's impersonal feelings.

Yerengina complained slightly: "Actually, Balzen can send some people to the designated place, so that we can take the prisoners of war away as soon as they escape." We carry a lot of provisions, and it's good to keep them fed. ”

The order has already been issued, and Yang Mingzhi can't afford to debate with her. He looked to the north and proposed: "I do not believe that the German defensive positions are so weak, and if the prisoners of war really escaped by their ability, I will immediately let Balzen attack." What I'm most afraid of is that the Germans are setting traps! That's why they were ordered to stay still. ”

If you think about it from this aspect, as long as the Germans learned about the escape route of the prisoners of war, that staging area would probably have been targeted by heavy artillery!

"Okay! I agree with Berekov's decision, so what about you? "Understood that Yerentina arched one for Yevlov.

"Me? Of course I'm rooting for him. ”
